Highlights from Nick Denton’s online company meeting

Gawker Media honcho Nick Denton held a company meeting Tuesday on Kinja, Gawker’s commenting and publishing platform. He wrote: “As its makers, we should use the software ourselves: its virtues should be evident in internal as well as external communication.”

Former editor A.J. Daulerio is “one of the best and most loyal colleagues,” Denton replied, saying few people thought Cook could match Daulerio’s traffic, “and yet Gawker.com now has 20 times the audience (see chart) it had during the supposed golden age of 2007,” Denton wrote. “It will continue to grow under Max Read, and his achievements will owe much to the coaching and example of his predecessors.”
